Hacienda Happy Tails Pancake Breakfast: Our Journey in Hosting our First Fundraiser Event


Running a non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing farm animals is a labor of love, but it also comes with its share of challenges. At Hacienda Happy Tails, we've embarked on an exciting journey to provide a safe and loving home for horses, alpacas, rabbits, goats, sheep, chickens, dogs, and cats. However, as a new non-profit, we quickly realized that to continue our mission, we needed to rally the support of our community. And that's where our first fundraiser event, the Hacienda Happy Tails Pancake Breakfast, comes into play.


Our Learning Hosting our first fundraiser has been a learning experience. We've discovered that fundraising is not just about collecting funds; it's also about building strong connections with the community. Here are some valuable lessons we've learned along the way:

  1. The Power of Community: Our community is growing every day and our is showing unwavering support, demonstrating their dedication to our cause. We've witnessed the compassion and commitment of our neighbors, friends, and fellow animal lovers. It's heartwarming to know that there are so many who care deeply about the welfare of our rescued animals.

  2. Building a Strong Board: A dedicated and capable board of directors is crucial for the success of a non-profit organization. Throughout this journey, we've realized the importance of assembling a board with diverse skills and a shared passion for our mission. Their guidance and expertise have been invaluable in planning and executing our fundraiser.

  3. Community Relationships: Establishing strong relationships within the community has been pivotal. We've engaged in meaningful conversations, collaborated with local businesses, and formed partnerships that have expanded our reach. These connections have not only helped us promote our event but have also laid the foundation for future collaborations.
